PHOTOS: The Best And Worst Of The Kids’ Choice Red Carpet

Perhaps in an attempt to protect their best designer duds from getting ruined with Nickelodeon’s trademark slime, the stars that hit the orange carpet last night for the Kids’ Choice Awards kept it, for the most part, pretty simple.

Kiernan Shipka, who can do no wrong in our eyes, sported a simple floral dress by Rag & Bone and booties, as did Maude Apatow, and we liked Jessica Alba‘s printed and well-tailored iridescent number, although the shoes left us a little underwhelmed. But the real winner of the night was Gabby Douglas, who shone bright in a coral colorblocked shift dress, leather bow belt, and black platform wedges.

On the other end was Khloe Kardashian, whose dress looked like something fashioned last minute from gauze in a surgical unit. And Ke$ha of course, because… well, Ke$ha.

We were most perplexed by Kristen Stewart‘s royal blue Osman Studio top and shorts combo. It’s good in theory — but too-tight short shorts at the Kids’ Choice Awards? A few more inches wouldn’t have hurt.
